Initially embarking on an affair when Debbie Dingle was working in Jersey in 2010, Cameron came to the village after tracking Debbie down, telling her that he has left his wife and sons for her. Debbie tells him that their affair was a mistake. Carl King gave Cameron a job at Emmerdale Haulage and he catches the eye of Eve Jenson. Debbie finally gives into Cameron and they get back together. He also moves into Tug Ghyll with her and her daughter, Sarah, and Andy Sugden, Sarah's father, is jealous of Sarah and Cameron's relationship. Cameron also clashes with Debbie's father, Cain Dingle, and tries to persuade Cain not to interfere in his and Debbie's relationship.

Debbie learns Cameron had another affair after she left Jersey, but he insists it meant nothing and is delighted when Debbie tells him that she is pregnant but miscarries not long afterwards. Cameron tries to support her and not let his feelings show. His sons, Dylan and Harry Murray, come to stay for a few days. Sarah become sick and they learn she has a rare genetic disorder. Cameron hires his own truck and starts poaching the King's customers. A betrayed Carl retaliates by attacking Cameron's truck that instigates an interactive rivalry between the two; with Cameron plotting to ruin the Kings. Together with Cain and his ex-girlfriend Charity Dingle, Debbie's mother, Cameron infiltrates Carl's project before going on to steal the King's haulage trucks and selling them off. Cameron then wipes all the files containing contracts from Carl's computer. This prompts Cain to tell Cameron he is part of the Dingle clan.

Sarah falls ill and Cameron supports Debbie. Debbie realizes that she needs to conceive a savior sibling with Andy and tries for IVF, however when this fails she sleeps with him. Cameron is unhappy when her learns they had sex together and they briefly separate but soon get back together. As time passes, Cameron embarks on an affair with Debbie's aunt Chas Dingle and even promises to leave Debbie for her; but Chas later recalls this a mistake and initially ends the affair until it becomes discovered by her ex-fiancé Carl, who had been clashing with Cameron following his stolen truck heist whilst seeking revenge on Chas for what she previously did to him at their wedding. He begins blackmailing Cameron and Chas for money whilst seeking to restart his relationship with Chas in spite of their past issues. Cameron becomes desperate to raise the amount and ends up robbing The Woolpack shortly after selling his haulage truck to Carl's brother Jimmy King. This successfully works until Carl realizes that Cameron has played him for selling his van to Jimmy and ends up phoning the police on him for the Woolpack robbery. Cameron is taken in for questioning until Debbie gets him off the hook, with Chas also taking the blame for the robbery. Following these events, Cameron's relationship with Debbie becomes a lot more tenuous due to his continuous affair with Chas and interactive rivalry on Carl.

Soon afterwards, Debbie starts to go on labor with her family proving support for her with the exception of Chas who is on the verge of marrying Dan Spencer. Cameron becomes alerted, but is unable to do anything as he is still vulnerable to Carl's blackmail. He later contacts Carl for a meeting in the church where the two begin the two start trading personal insults and criticisms. A infuriated Cameron soon threatens Carl when the latter presses the issue, only for Carl to just laugh him off before departing. A while later, Cameron sees Chas running away and goes to see what she's running from. He finds a weakened Carl lying on the ground next to Debbie's garage and confronts him; having missed his earlier attempt to rape Chas that culminated with her hitting Carl with a brick. Carl goads Cameron about the affair and how Cain and Debbie will react, before going on to rant how the death of his older brother Matthew King has made him untouchable to any crime he previously committed, including the killing of his father Tom King. He then declares his promise to destroy Cameron's life and proceeds to taunt how he will never be able to kill him because he is indestructible, which ultimately becomes the last straw for Cameron as he responds by hitting Carl on the head with a brick, killing him. Cameron checks if Carl is alive; when he is not, Cameron flees just before the latter's deceased body is discovered by Adam Barton and Victoria Sugden.

Meanwhile Debbie is giving birth to baby Jack, allowing Cameron to wash his bloodstained clothes. Cameron is thrilled about Jack's birth and cannot wait to be a family with Debbie, Sarah and Jack. Carl's death becomes public knowledge the following day (with Jimmy getting arrested for his murder following his earlier confrontation with Carl whilst Cameron's cause remains undiscovered) and, on the same day, Debbie receives a message from Carl that exposes Cameron's affair with Chas. She confronts Cameron and chucks him out, before going on with her furious parents and grandfather Zak Dingle to confront Chas in the Woolpack, where a heartbroken Dan and the residents all learn of the affair. With Cameron getting involved in the situation, he is attacked by Cain and Charity that leads to the both getting arrested. In that moment, Chas confesses to murdering Carl after explaining his attempted rape on her and ends up getting arrested as well. Cameron does not admit to killing Carl and while Cain and Charity are released without charge, Chas is charged with his murder. Consumed with guilt, he confesses the truth to his best friend Alex Moss. Cameron is then relieved to hear that Chas has been acquitted, but he suspects Alex may go to the police. On that day, Cameron knocks Alex down with a wooden object lying on the floor and he takes him hostage in a haulage van. The next morning, Alex tries to reason with Cameron that is enough to persuade him to release him. However, Cameron starts to become hesitant as he explains his interaction with Carl that allows Alex to escape and run through the woods. Cameron manages to catch up to Alex and drags him back to the van, where he kills him off-screen to prevent him from going to the police. Cameron is later seen burying Alex in the woods along with his bag of clothes he stole. To cover up Alex's death, he stages a break-down in Edna Birch's house to manipulate everyone in believing that he left the village with a lot of debt. He then leaves the village for a month following a run-in with Cain that gets him beaten up and after Debbie comes close to ramming him down from the road.

Cameron soon returns the following month and shocks the Dingle's by proposing to Chas that leads to the two getting engaged. Upon discovering this, Cain becomes infuriated with their presence and engagement that leads to him threatening to destroy Cameron and Chas unless they leave the villaige for good. Cameron, however, becomes unfazed and later plans to kill Cain; whom he confronts in his garage where he makes it clear that he isn't going anywhere. Tensions between Cain and Cameron soon instigates a confrontation with Chas, Zak and Cain's girlfriend Moira Barton rushing in the scene the moment Cain punches Cameron. However, Cameron fights back and brutally beats Cain up before launching him against the wall. Witnessing Chas in the crossfire, Cain checks to see if she is ok before Cameron picks up a wrench to finish him off, only for Chas to step in between the two just in time. Having won the fight, Cameron backs off and leaves since he is unable to finish Cain due to Chas's interference. When Debbie learns about this, she becomes angry at Cain shortly before revealing Cameron's engagement with Chas to Sarah. Since then, Cain gradually starts to rebuild his interaction with Chas whilst clashing with Cameron on more than one occasion.

During this time, Cameron has already been aware that Chas was being stalked and harassed by Carl's son Thomas King. He is later unimpressed when she gives him a job in the Woolpack and suspiciously begins to question his interaction with Chas, only for Chas to keep backing him off. The two later have a meal in the Woolpack as orchestrated by Thomas and Marlon Dingle, Chas' cousin, which is later interrupted by an alarm that was indirectly caused by Thomas. In that moment, Cameron becomes angry and snaps at Thomas by calling him a "liability" before getting dismissed by Chas and Thomas. He soon confronts Thomas and warns him to leave the village for good, but ends up upsetting Thomas when he laments how much he wanted to make amends with Chas following an previous confession from Cain that describes what his father had attempted to do on the night he was murdered. Becoming regretful, Cameron apologizes to Thomas for his behaviour towards him and proceeds to explain how much his father loved Chas by attempting to reconcile their relationship in his own terms; which becomes clear that Thomas isn't positive about what his father had done to Chas while Cameron surprisingly regrets killing Carl in spite of their past. Their conversation is broken by Chas, who thanks Cameron for making amends, and the two would later endure a positive interaction until Thomas ends up departing the villaige for good.

Cameron later discovers that Charity is having an affair with Declan Macey, and begins blackmailing her to ease up on Chas under the threat of exposing her affair to her husband Jai Sharma. He also blackmails Declan under the same purpose when his nephew Robbie Lawson begins to stir up trouble for Chas as part of Debbie's plan; threatening to tell his wife Kate Sugden, Chas' best friend, about the affair if he doesn't back Robbie off. This doesn't work and Cameron ends up clashing with Robbie when the latter threatens to harm Sarah. He soon finds Robbie preparing to commit arson in the Woolpack and kidnaps him in his van, where he plans to kill him as he did to Alex. This, however, doesn't happen when Chas discovers this before Debbie and her partner Megan Macey, Robbie's mother, learn about this as well. Following the event, Cameron warns Declan about their deal and manages to coerce him in preventing Megan to call the police on him for Robbie's kidnap. Eventually, Declan's affair with Charity becomes exposed that also ends up revealing Cameron's blackmail against them; leading to Chas confronting Cameron about his blackmail that has now deteriorated her friendship with Charity even further.
Later on, Cameron flies his sons over from Jersey to meet Chas properly and the boys are at first wary of Chas. They start to warm to her but they run and hide at Debbie's once they find out from Debbie that Chas murdered Carl, despite the fact that Cameron murdered Carl but as the boys are unaware of this he could never confess the truth to his sons or else things will get a lot worse for Cameron, the next day Cameron flies back to Jersey with his boys after he can't convince them to stay. When he comes back the atmosphere is tense, including the part when he is more concerned about Alex's body, so after breaking Chas promise by attending Brenda Walker's party, he manages to successfully bury Alex's dead body into another location but after burying his dead victim, Cameron becomes more afraid than ever about his victim and the expose of his secret and as he drives his Ford Transit on the way back to Chas, Cameron deliberately crashes his Van and is a little injured but survives, However he is still worried about his murderous plots, Eventually the next day Cameron arrives at the Woolpack safely and reunites with Chas but he does not realize Debbie had just held Chas at gun point and instead they discuss about Debbie's plots against his boys and are worried once his wife Anna Murray finds out about this. Later in the year, Cameron and Chas aim to buy The Woolpack but when Cameron's ex-wife Anna refuses to let Cameron see his boys, they are forced to use the money to apply for custody.

Belle Dingle drinks half a bottle of Debbie's dodgy vodka and is left with possible brain damage. Debbie and Sarah walk in to find Belle has fainted and Sarah rushes to get Cameron. Cameron and Debbie rush Belle to hospital and Cameron comforts Debbie as she feels guilty. He also does not tell the Dingles it was Debbie's vodka. However the Dingles eventually find out and disown Debbie. Cameron begins to feel sorry for Debbie not only that The Entire Dingle clan disowned her but when Andy takes Jack and Sarah away from her but as things tension up a bit the pair share a kiss but are almost caught by Chas but not after Debbie slaps Cameron, believing that she hates him but the truth is that she loves him and Cameron is unaware of that.

A couple of days later, Cameron becomes horrified to discover that Debbie is attempting to flee Emmerdale with the kids, he spreads the word to Chas, Andy and Diane Sugden, who become horrified and whilst Andy is angry for noticing that Debbie did such a horrible thing, Cameron blames Andy that he put Debbie in the mess since he took Sarah and Jack away from her and Andy just bluffs, Cameron then learns where Debbie is and rushes to the airport where she, Sarah and Jack are waiting for a plane ticket to freedom but Cameron catches them, hugs Sarah and convinces Debbie not to flee, stating that it will only make things worse, Debbie refuses at first but realizing that she still loves Cameron and discovering that everyone in her family and Andy will only panic for her escaped, agrees and they head on home in The Woolpack and points out that she'll never do a thing like that again and things so the way it was but Debbie, appreciated by Cameron's heart for her and Sarah, kisses Cameron again, without Chas even noticing, and the pair sleep together. He later learns that Debbie almost murdered Chas by holding her a gunpoint whilst he was away in Jersey. Gennie Sharma begins to notice a connection between both Cameron and Debbie as they begin to get close again and she tries to get the evidence she needs to prove to Chas that she's right about Cameron by breaking into Debbie's house to record the pair. However, she gets more than she bargained for as Cameron confesses to the murder of Carl to Debbie. At first Debbie doesn't believe him since she believes that Chas killed Carl but a heartbroken and cranked up Cameron explains to Debbie and reveals the whole story, Debbie manages to believe him at is surprised however she forgives him and the pair start to fall in love once again after share a kiss (much to Gennie's horror).

A scared Gennie gets into her car but are quickly pursued by Cameron and Debbie. However, Gennie's car spirals out of control and she's involved in a huge car crash.

Knowing she could expose his secret, Cameron claims his third victim and murders Gennie without Debbie even noticing, eventually she and the other residents including Chas, Nikhil, Brenda and Bob discover Gennie's death but like before all are unaware that Cameron had done it.

Debbie feels guilty and is desperate for Cameron support however Cameron says he has to stay with Chas right now. They agree to tell Chas after Gennie's funeral. On the day of the funeral Chas wonders where Cameron has gone - she later sees him coming out of Debbie's house. In the funeral she realizes that Cameron and Debbie are seeing each other. Struggling to contain her emotion Chas runs out the church whilst giving a speech about Gennie. Cain runs after her and demands to know what Cameron has done - she replies he did Debbie. Fuming, Cain punches Cameron at Gennie's wake and Debbie and Cameron reveal that they are now a couple.

Cameron comes to live with Debbie but while he is moving his stuff into the house, Cain taunts him. Cameron taunts him back, leading to Cain knocking him unconscious and dragging him into his car. Debbie witnesses this and tries to stop Cain, however Cain drives off. Desperate to know where Cain is taking Cameron, Debbie starts shouting at Charity and Chas, demanding to know where he is. Charity reveals that he might be at the quarry as that was where she and Cain once planned to kill Cameron and fake his suicide. Debbie rushes to her car and drives to the quarry. She finds a tied and gagged Cameron locked in the back of the car while Cain wipes his fingerprints of the steering wheel. Debbie begs Cain to stop but Cain ignores her and proceeds to push the car off the cliff. Unable to physically stop him, Debbie stands in front of the car. Cain demands Debbie to move however she does not, saying he will have to push her off as well. Cameron pleads with Debbie to move, knowing that the ground underneath is crumbling and it is unsafe. Debbie does not resent and Cain emotionally says that she is choosing Cameron over her family to which Debbie replies please don't make me choose. Cameron shouts at Cain to let him go and Cain does so before Cameron punches Cain but Debbie stops him from doing more. Cain then leaves Cameron with Debbie but warns him that he'll be watching him, Debbie and Cameron decide to have a break and go on holiday to Jersey. When they return the Dingles are still apprehensive about Cameron.

While Cameron and Debbie are on holiday eventually Cameron's victim is finally discovered under Declan Macey's patrol and when he and his family refuse to allow them to investigate his patrol, Declan is arrested on the course of justice but not before The Police eventually figure out that the body is dead and was caused by murder, therefore, Declan is arrested also on suspicion of murder, a while later after being interviewed, Declan is released but is still on charges and on bail as the investigation goes on before Cameron and Debbie arrive and make peace with Chas in the Woolpack but the Police past them when they question Declan over the victim.

As they return they discover that the body in the woods (the one that Cameron hid under Declan Macey's patrol) is found and the identity of the victim is Alex Moss which surprises Debbie and the residents as the episode ends with Cameron who is showing signs on panics outside The Woolpack as he realizes that his 2nd victim is discovered although they are unaware that Cameron did the killing, later on Cameron becomes friends with Adam Barton (Alex's closest friend) when they discuss about Declan's plans trying to take the Bartons land, in the garage Adam along with Cain and Cameron (who aren't still getting along well) have a chat about Declan before Adam and Cain assumes that Declan may have murdered Alex, while Cameron is busy and gets the info in the head but not before spotting Declan who's walking casually. A while later Adam and Cameron start to hang out in the pub and have a chat about what's been happening until Declan along with her sister Megan walk past them. Declan taunts Adam about the land and if he wants to blame someone then blame it on his old man, John Barton. this leads to a fight where Adam punches Declan for teasing him about his dad but Andy stops Adam for doing more while Cameron watches the incident and he and Andy try to calm down Adam who is questioned by the police about the fight but Adam just ignores it and states he should of done it before, this shocks the police (who may have discovered about his time with both Declan and Alex) and Adam is arrested for assault. Later on Adam is interrogated by DS Shields and DC Flanagan (who are investigating Alex's murder) about the friendship between him and Declan for the time being, then they begin to question him over Alex Moss when Cameron betrays Adam after being question by a policewoman about Adam, The Bartons and Declan, but not before Cameron mentions about Alex's friendship with Adam. During Cameron's betrayal, he blackmails Adam by phoning to the police and reports about Alex's murder, however he reveals the whole truth but keeps Adam's name on about it (stating that he's reporting that Adam killed Alex) and does not mention his and keeps his name out, he hangs up and the camera soon turns to Adam along with DS Shields and DC Flanagan who later discover about the phone call from a unknown relative (Cameron Murray, although the police do not know the name) about Adam's friendship with Alex and as a result Adam is arrested for the murder of Alex Moss, although after a interrogation and questioning, Adam is later released but is still on bail, Cameron discovers this but keeps calm and proceeds his relationship with Debbie (who discovers about what's been happening about Adam and Alex although she's unaware that Cameron caused it).

As Cameron continues his relationship with Debbie he starts to receive some texts from a unknown person, Cameron then realizes that he's been blackmailed by that person, he even receives some demands in the texts including for £500 and some texts are just messing Cameron about, Cameron becomes furious and starts to teach the blackmailer some lessons although he's unaware who it is, a while later Sean Spencer plays football and damages Debbie's car, Cameron witness this and runs towards Sean, who tries to get the ball quickly but he's caught out and Cameron slaps Sean but Adam sticks up for Sean and tells Cameron to back off while Cameron just taunts Adam but Adam ignores Cameron and leaves, Cameron then assumes Adam is his blackmailer so after a quick chance at the Dingle Garage, Cameron confronts Adam in the Woolpack and Cameron grabs Adam and taunts him about his blackmail. However Adam tells Cameron to back off as he doesn't know what Cameron's playing at, Cameron continues to warn and taunt Adam off when Adam's mother Moria Barton (and Cain Dingle's fiancé) demands Cameron to stop this and Diane Sugden orders Cameron to leave and cool off and Cameron does so but not before warning Adam that he'll be watching him. The next day Cameron receives another text from his blackmailer about the money, he later learns the exact location of where the blackmailer lives and plans to trick him as he takes the letter without any money and once he arrives there, he puts his money in the bin and gets his wrench out preparing to confront his blackmailer and possibly claim his fourth victim a while later his trouble maker (the blackmailer) arrives to collect the evidence but she discovers she's been tricked, realizing that his 4th victim has arrived Cameron surprises the blackmailer who turns out to be Amelia Spencer which surprises Cameron since it was a kid all along and he could not possibly kill a child as Cameron scares Amelia about her events, Amelia reveals that Sean's the real blackmailer and put her up to this after Cameron attacked him and had a go at his father Dan Spencer, later on Cameron arranges for a meeting with Sean and Amelia and he meets them the meeting starts, during the meeting Cameron demands to know who put both Sean and Amelia up to this and although Cameron again assumes to be Adam, Sean reveals that he's the true blackmailer after his events against him, Cameron becomes displeased with Sean and Amelia but lets them go but not before warning them to back off at him and to stop playing games at him or else there will be serious trouble, Sean and Amelia then depart and Cameron resumes his relationship with Debbie and Sarah, despite his troubles he gave to them and Cain during his blackmail plot.

Around the same time Cameron is interrogated by DS Shields and DC Flanagan about Carl and Gennie's deaths and Alex's murder to which they were unaware of. Cameron tries to proclaim the police that no matter what he has done he would never hurt Debbie nor his and her kids but the police ignore him and question him about Alex's death.

She ignores his comings and throws her engagement ring into the bin as DS Shields leaves her alone.

Chas along with Brenda and Bob goes to Cameron's trial where he pleads guilty although his decision is unaware.

In early October 2013, Cameron escapes from prison and everyone including Debbie and Chas discover this and are horrified. Debbie's house is guarded by policemen at all times. Cameron tricks the police in thinking he has escaped to another country by appearing on CCTV at an airport, but then moves out the way of the camera and makes his way to Emmerdale. After kidnapping Sarah, he enters the Woolpack with a double barrel shotgun, Cameron distracts a policeman and knocks him out unconscious, Cameron is assumed to have killed him, although he later survives, Cameron then enters inside The Woolpack where Marlon and Chas locked the doors, but are unaware that Cameron is inside.

Cameron tries to persuade Debbie to leave with him but Debbie, stating that she hates Cameron more than she hates Chas, refuses and says that she hates him and that he will never go nowhere near Sarah ever again and during the hostage she says the same about Jack and Zak Dingle stands up to Cameron, just then much to everyone's horror, Cameron threatens Zak and warns him but Zak warns and taunts him back and demands that he shoots him and just then, Zak, along with Chas, attempt to overpower Cameron but this fails and this forces Cameron to shoot, a gunshot is heard outside and it is revealed that Cameron has the power, however he noticed that Zak wasn't shot and just then, Alicia Harding collapses and it is stated that Cameron shot Alicia, accidental, much to everyone horror. Cameron refuses to let Alicia go until Debbie, feeling guilty, tries to talk Cameron out of it and states to let everyone go and she'll come with him but, much to Debbie's horror and shock, Cameron betrays Debbie and refuses and he knows that she will betray him again, like to day before his arrest and that he really wants to plan truth that Debbie will love Cameron, and so Cameron threatens Debbie and gets her backed, much to Debbie's surprise, Cameron then threatens David before the phone rings and orders Diane to answer it, Diane informs DS Shields about the incident and she, David, Chas, Zak and David plead Cameron to let her go but again he refuses before Chas replies that he can't let her die, but Cameron ignores her and states that she'll die like Gennie and Alex, that he killed them both and he'll kill her next but then Debbie again persuades Cameron to love her and that he lost nothing and that he has her, Cameron refused at first but then, realizing that Debbie is telling the truth and takes back for all his killings, agrees but yet again he refuses to let Alicia go stating "one more won't hurt". The remaining hostages plead with Cameron to let her go so she can be treated and David Metcalfe keeps on begging him to do so, just then Dan states a plan to get the gun, it seemed to be working but Debbie betrays everyone, stating "It's a trap", instead of "I love you" and Cameron threatens Dan, who backs down but is mad at Debbie's betrayal before everyone tearfully begs Cameron that Alicia has minutes and is almost dead but Cameron again refuses before Debbie persuades Cameron that he lets everyone go and it will be just her and him together.

Unaware that all his bullets have gone, Cameron states that he always has to choose between Debbie and Chas and then counts down from 10 saying that he only needs one and demands them to talk through who dies first and which one will be with him. After counting 10, Debbie demands that he shoots her and Cameron angrily agrees but he then has no bullets left but then reloaded the gun as he gained the upper hand when Debbie and Chas attempted to escape but failed. Later on Cain, who's in France, discovers this on TV and heads back to Emmerdale, Cameron then reveals that he was never going to shoot Debbie and that it was always going to be Chas, just then Debbie and Chas argue again about what's been happening over the year and Cameron, who tries to calm them down and offers to help but Chas taunts them both, before Cameron and Chas, but not before Marlon woke up and knocked Cameron out and held him at gun point as Debbie and Chas tried to escape through the cellar.
